I know everyone dreads Mondays. But recently I came across an inspirational quote: “Attitude is the difference between a hassle and an adventure.” And it made me re-think my approach to Mondays. Even owning my own business, where I technically* make the rules (*heavily asterisked because, in all honesty, the customer owns my business — I exist because they exist), I can sometimes head into the week feeling like I’m starting an uphill battle instead of greeting the week with a smile on my face and a can-do attitude. (Side note: Ohmigod, who have I turned into *that girl* who actually pays attention to cheesy inspirational quotes on Pinterest? Who am I?) But seriously, just take a look at the chic lady, who — for all we know! — could be rocking this look on a Monday and just having the most fabulous day of her life. I want to go where she’s going. And I’m going to follow suit by challenging myself to make this upcoming Monday a fashion funday — take a risk, wear my favorite new article of clothing, take the time to get really dolled up, throw on heels instead of flats, etc.
In this vein. A few FUN, colorful new pieces to spruce up the Monday wardrobe.*
*OK, many of these things are not work wardrobe appropriate (for most of us). But you can buy them on a Monday and feel happy about it. Or get wild and creative and mix them into a workplace-appropriate look. Whatever you do, just put a smile on that face come Monday.
+I feature a lot of tassel earrings and I’m a little scared I may be burning some of you out. So I’m gonna go ahead and try to make this my last pair of tassels (?????). But the COLORS are so dang good, and the price is palatable ($88!)
+Patterned bikini ($135 per piece) — just a little ray o’ sunshine.
+Gorgeous embroidered dress ($610).
+These snakeskin espadrilles (on sale for $469) — OMG! THE BEST!
+Stunning, stunning embroidered top ($595).
+Not something to wear, but how much do you love the packaging (and scent!) of this Scandinavian soap ($8)?!
+Soludos espadrilles ($65).
